Actor Mel Gibson launched into what a fellow churchgoer called “a crazed rant” at his Holy Family Chapel in California last Sunday, assailing congregants at the “traditionalist” Catholic church for questioning his morals. Gibson, in the midst of a divorce from his longtime wife, Robyn, is now expecting a child with 39-year-old Russian beauty Oksana Grigorieva. Gibson paced back and forth on the church’s altar, a source told Radaronline.com, “furiously telling the congregation that he would not stand by and be judged and scrutinized.”
